08 โ€” In conversation

What ๐Ÿ˜’ means from a girl or a guy

Same emoji, different intent depending on who sent it and what came before.

From a girl
When a girl sends you ๐Ÿ˜’, sheโ€™s likely feeling a bit unimpressed, maybe a little skeptical, or just not particularly amused. Itโ€™s often a polite way to express disagreement without being overly confrontational. Sometimes it just means sheโ€™s tired of talking about something.
From a guy
If a guy sends you ๐Ÿ˜’, he could be feeling the same as a girl โ€“ a little annoyed, bored, or unimpressed. He might be responding to something you said that wasnโ€™t particularly exciting, or he could just be feeling generally unimpressed with the conversation.
How to reply
If someone sends you ๐Ÿ˜’, you could reply with: โ€œHaha, sorry!โ€ ๐Ÿ˜‰ โ€œSeriously thoughโ€ฆโ€ ๐Ÿค” โ€œI get it.โ€ ๐Ÿ‘ โ€œNo worries!โ€ ๐Ÿ˜Š

09 โ€” Apps

What ๐Ÿ˜’ means on TikTok, WhatsApp and Discord

One code point, several readings โ€” where the unamused face lands changes how it is taken.

TikTok & Instagram
It usually means the person is feeling slightly annoyed or unimpressed with what was just said or done. Basically, theyโ€™re not super excited about it. In comments and captions it is read the same way โ€” the tone comes from what it sits next to.
WhatsApp
WhatsApp draws ๐Ÿ˜’ with Apple-style artwork on every phone, so it looks identical for both sides. A message with only ๐Ÿ˜’ in it is shown enlarged.
Discord & Slack
Both accept the shortcode :unamused:. Discord renders Twemoji, so ๐Ÿ˜’ looks different there than on your phone.
Outlook & email
Outlook has no emoji picker on desktop โ€” press Win + . or Control + Command + Space inside the message body, or paste ๐Ÿ˜’ from the copy button above.

11 โ€” History

Where the ๐Ÿ˜’ Unamused Face emoji came from

Same character every time โ€” U+1F612 never changed. Only the drawing did, and only because each vendor redraws its own set. Someone on an older phone still sees the older picture.

1997โ€“2008
Japanese carrier phones

Long before Unicode had emoji, Japanese carriers shipped their own picture sets. ๐Ÿ˜’ existed there as NTT DoCoMo E725, KDDI au EAC9, SoftBank E40E. Those codes are why it survived into the standard at all โ€” Unicode had to keep Japanese messages readable.

2010
Added to the standard

Unamused Face was approved as U+1F612 and shipped in Emoji 0.6 (2010). Emoji 0.6 is the original 2010 batch that came over from the Japanese sets.

Today
Drawn 9 different ways

Every vendor keeps its own artwork, so ๐Ÿ˜’ is redrawn by Apple, Google, Twitter / X, Facebook, OpenMoji, Samsung, Microsoft, WhatsApp, JoyPixels. The character you send never changes โ€” only the picture does.
